@MikeSharpeWriter @EposVox Don't. You can buy external drives for roughly the same price as internals these days. $20 for DVD/CD and $60 for BR/DVD/CD. Just make sure it's USB 3.x and not 2.x, then speed won't be an issue. Then if you get a mini/micro PC (e.g. Mac mini and the like) or a laptop, you can easily connect it — and stow it in a drawer when it's not needed
@CerebralHawks @MikeSharpeWriter @EposVox even if your next PC isn’t “micro” it’s somehow becoming ever harder to find cases with a 5.25” drive bay.
